Hands
If I could tell the world just one thing
It would be that we're all OK
And not to worry 'cause worry is wasteful
And useless in times like these
I won't be made useless
I won't be idle with despair
I will gather myself around my faith
For light does the darkness most fear
My hands are small

Will time stand still if it's pierced with cold
Chorus:
The more I live

That's when suddenly everything fades or falls away
Cause the chains which once held us are only the chains which we've made

Innocence Maintained
Ophelia drowned in the water
Crushed by her own weight
Hitler loved little blue-eyed boys
And it drove him to hate
Birds always grow silent
Before the night descends
'Cause nature has a funny way
Of breaking what does not bend
A hero's torso built
Of steel and Novocane
His heart a bitter beat
Inside a bloodless frame
There was a hole inside his soul
A manicure could not fill
So he found himself a whore to love
While dasies choked in the window sill
(Chorus)
We've made houses for hatred
It's time we made a place where
